it wasn't susan rice. it was somebody in the administration or intelligence commune and we know it wasn't david petraeus. >> do you think it's possible that anyone at the white house could have known the full version of events or possible series of version of events and yes, they are handed an editeded version, the same one ambassador rice received, but they knew there were alternative ones that said it was preplanned, not spontaneous. >> for the administration to admit it wasn't informed, information the director said he had was hard for me to believe and means the administration really wasn't on top of their game. the most important issue we got here, a u.s. ambassador was murdered. first ambassador we've lost since 1979. three others were killed. we didn't have advanced intelligence to know the attack was going to take place. that sends a horrible message to our diplomats and we need to know why the administration tried to look the other way, tried to not pay attention to what somebody in the administra

why was susan rice put out there? is it possibly because hillary clinton knew more than she was allowed to say? >> no, i suspect that hillary clinton was either out of the country or wanted a sunday morning where she didn't have to go on television five times. it's, you know, when you're working inside the administration, it's seven days a week, it's nonstop, there's a crisis every hour, somebody's always calling -- >> we know there were substantial revisions to the bullet points. so presumably, some people had seen the unrevised version. which included the al qaeda link and other things, right? >> she may have seen it, but if it was classified, she's not going to go out there and expose it. she's going to relay what the intelligence community says, this is what's safe to say. now, you can go back and say, well, the intelligence community shouldn't have tried to protect the fact that we knew it was al qaeda or al qaeda involvement. >> right. >> they shouldn't have tried to do that. that's an intelligence community jud
